Accolades

Andraka Consulting Group is internationally recognized as a leader in high
performance DSP design for FPGAs. President Ray
Andraka has completed over 100 high performance FPGA designs in Actel, Altera, Atmel
and Xilinx FPGAs, most in signal processing applications. He has also published papers about high performance design techniques for these complex
devices. FPGA services offered include
 | DSP Design ACG tailors your DSP algorithms for efficient
implementation in FPGAs. With over 10 years of pipelined DSP hardware and high
performance FPGA design experience, ACG |
 | High performance design ACG uses a proven design philosophy to achieve the
optimum performance and utilization of the FPGA. We tailor our designs to the architecture
of the device and to the specific requirements of the project to attain the best possible
design solution. The high performance techniques used by Andraka Consulting Group can
reduce the time to market by eliminating the post-route tweaking that inevitably occurs
otherwise. |
 | Reconfigurable Computer Design ACG knows how and when to take
advantage of FPGA reconfigurability to lower product life-cycle costs. |
 | FPGA Macro Functions ACG creates custom FPGA macros and logic
cores optimized for performance and area. Place these verified macros in your
design to simplify development. |
 | Design Tune-ups. We clean up existing designs to help you obtain better
performance and higher logic densities. Even undemanding designs can benefit from our
performance tune-up techniques by allowing a smaller or slower device. |
 | Design Verification and Analysis. ACG uses the latest technologies in
computer aided design for digital systems. All of our designs undergo a thorough
simulation and design analysis before release to assure a first pass success. |
 | Independent Design Evaluations. ACG does third party evaluations of
existing designs, and makes specific recommendations to improve FPGA function,
performance, reliability, and testability. |
 | Design Translations We translate existing designs to FPGAs, making changes
where needed to better fit the target architecture. We do conversions from ASICs,CPLDs,
PALs and board level designs to FPGAs, and design ports between different FPGAs. |
 | Training. ACG offers on-site training in high performance FPGA design
techniques, reconfigurable computing and DSP for FPGAs. |

ACG can arrange complete product development services to
complement our mainline FPGA business. We can take a product from concept to production or
anywhere in between. Our one-stop support services include:
 | Board level design and development. ACG has extensive experience
developing board level products. Our careful approach assures first pass success. |
 | Printed wiring board layout, fabrication and assembly. We can arrange
complete printed wiring board services, including multilayer and surface mount
technologies in prototype or production quantities. |
 | Agency approvals We can design to meet FCC, UL, and IEC Electrostatic
Discharge requirements. We can arrange compliance testing for our work as well. |
 | Design documentation. In addition to standard design release
documentation, we can provide user manuals, theory of operation monologues, and custom
documentation. |
 | Software development. ACG arranges embedded code design and development to
ensure a smooth integration with the hardware. |
 | Independent design reviews. ACG does third party evaluations on existing
designs, and makes specific recommendations to improve function, performance, reliability,
testability and manufacturability. |
 | Design integration. We thoroughly test our designs and work with our
clients to ensure a smooth integration of the electronics into their products. |

"Andraka Consulting Group opened my eyes to a whole
new approach to signal processing....The reconfigurable logic reduced three custom boards
to a single common design and gave us the flexibility to incorporate changes."
-Joe Castrogivanni, Telephonics
"Very few can dance with these devices [FPGAs] the way Andraka Consulting Group
does"
-Fred Husher, G-Tech Corp.
Andraka Consulting Group is "on our top-10 list of consultants and
industry activists"
-Bo Varga, Giga-Ops
Andraka Consulting Group "extracted more processing power out of one FPGA than I
thought was possible"
-Andy Nordgren, PolyPharm, Inc.
"Ray Andraka's 'CORDIC' article made the subject clear
for the first time."
